North Side Gang

The North Side Gang was an Irish- and Polish-American criminal organization that ruled the North Side of Chicago, Illinois from 1919 to 1935. The gang was led by Dean O'Banion (1919-1924), Hymie Weiss (1924-1926), Vincent Drucci (1926-1927), and Bugs Moran (1927-1935), and the gang fought against the rival Chicago Outfit of the American Mafia. The gang had around 30 members during Prohibition, and the gang was wiped out as a result of a war with Al Capone during the 1920s and 1930s.
